		<description><![CDATA[Russian-Ukrainian tensions are building.  &#8220;Now, for the first time in years, the word &#8216;war&#8217; is being used here, and it&#8217;s not dismissed as impossible,&#8221; Ukrainian analyst Valeriy Chaly told the Washington Post.
This is driven by specific issues, such as the Crimean issue, and by the larger Russian skepticism that Ukraine is a permanent, independent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The New York Times reported today on tense relations between Russia and Ukraine, as &#8220;both sides resort to provocations and recriminations.&#8221; 
It is the Crimean Peninsula, appended to Ukraine by Stalin but heavily populated by Russians and Crimean Tatars, &#8220;where the tensions are perhaps most in danger of bursting into open conflict,&#8221; though &#8220;both countries [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Economist Intelligence Unit released its 2006 e-readiness rankings yesterday.

The ratings are a good indicator of general abilities [...]]]></description>
